I have an alpha female basenji and brought a newborn into our family. I was in the hospital for four days (my in laws stayed with dog and horse), when we came home, we had my Mom bring her new boyfriend. He was a great distraction, but also allowed me some alone time with Cricket. When they left, she noticed the baby in the bassinet and was a bit concerned.
She adapted to the baby, but I don't leave them alone just in case. Cricket is not nearly as jealous as she was, now that he drops food for her at the table, but she did get a bit jealous for a few weeks.
While I was pregnant, I was told that 'the test' was to play baby crying videos on YouTube. How the dog reacts will tell you how they will interact with the baby. Cricket beat the crap out of my phone when I tried… So not a great test! 🙂

I have two tattoos, the first is my dear departed Thunders' paw print. It's right above my heart.I got it four months before he passed.
I'm so glad that I did,as I had no idea he would leave me so soon after.The other tattoo is of him running full out. It was taken from a pix of him at a LGRA meet. It's on my left upper arm.
I feel very comforted by having these tattoos,I look at them daily and remember how special he was.
I would recommend anyone who loses a special B to get a tattoo of them. It is a healing thing.At least for me.Kathryn D. Ladick

I don't have any tatoos, mainly because I have never been able to pinpoint something I know I would be happy with for the rest of my life. But I am pretty sure I could be happy with a Basenji tat forever

I was wondering when i was watching it if he might be a member, really pleased he is, was lovely to see someone so positive about the breed. And he was rather lovely to watch

Awww… I approve!
Rocky1, would love to see pictures of your tattoos if you don't mind sharing.

There are a few exhibitors in the northwest that I have spotted basenji tattoos on and I remember seeing a spread in the basenji magazine or maybe the BCOA bulletin about someone who had a mural done on her upper back in color. It was pretty cool.
I have tattoos myself but have yet to acquire anything basenji related. Key word, yet…
-
Wow, very cool. Quite a mellow basenji IMO.

Irena - love your dad's tatoo of Geasy - the artist did a wonderful job! If I were a guy, and if I were younger, and if I could stand the pain, I'd definitely have a B tatoo!
-
Irena, your dad's tattoo is beautiful!
I've been thinking about getting one of Cody or to represent Cody, but I haven't figured out exactly what yet. I have about 17 regular tattoos now, so I think my best friend deserves to leave his mark too -
Irena - What a super tattoo of your dad's.
I think it's a lvvely idea and I'm admiring of you brave people with your tattoos.

Irena, your Dad's tattoo looks realy good.
I'm not brave enough to have a tattoo
